It has the functions of awakening the mind and opening the orifices, harmonizing yin and yang, calming the nerves, relieving spasms and unclogging the meridians. It has always been used as the first choice acupoint for emergency treatment in clinical practice. Acupuncture at the Ren Zhong point is not only effective in treating some acute and serious diseases, but is also effective for chronic mental and emotional diseases such as vascular dementia (VD), depression, and insomnia.

Do not squeeze it with your hands.

3. Redness of the philtrum is related to gynecological diseases

The color of the uterus and prostate can be seen from the philtrum. If it turns white, it means blood deficiency and qi deficiency; if it turns yellow, it means spleen deficiency; if it turns red, it means heat syndrome, women often have cervical erosion, and men have prostatitis; if it turns blue or black, it means cold syndrome, which may cause severe pain and cancer.

The uterus and prostate are important reproductive organs in the male and female reproductive systems respectively, and their roles are self-evident. The human body is a living organism that is in constant metabolism. The reproductive system is also the same. It is constantly producing toxins and being invaded by pathogens. At the same time, it is affected by tension, stress and bad emotions. Therefore, daily ecological maintenance is necessary to eliminate various unfavorable factors in order to maintain the health and youth of the reproductive system for a long time and achieve long-term health, happiness, youth and vitality of the human body.
